one of my friends (pax...she SOMETIMES writes here) listens to Queen as much as i do. my oher friends dont mind queen, but we piss them off nicely, by talking about how hot rog and bri are all the time!! the fights last about 2seconds..if that! hell, even my friend whos in la-la land half the time, knows who roger taylor is!!!
Half of them think I'm nuts, a majority of the other half don't care what I listen to, and a select few are just as much a fan as I am, so they understand.
When I was younger, it bothered my friends a ton. You know, 'why listen to that OLD band Queen?! SPICE GIRLS are the rage now!' But now, I actually let my friends borrow Greatest Hits I and II and insist they burn their own copies. In about three days, they can sing the songs in their sleep :-D
They say:
First: "You know they were gay, don't you?"
Second: "Bohemian Rhapsody was cool... Galileo! Haha"
Third: "We will rock you and We are the Champions are stupid and annoying and have no intellectual value"
Drives me nuts.
it shits me when people say to me "you know they were gay?" no shit fucking sherlock!!!! im a fan, am i not? then i correct them, that only freddie was gay...but he still knew how to rock!!!
hmm... they think that I'm strange... The most people in Poland know Queen but their knowledge about this band is rather bad.
They remember that Freddie was gay - it's the most important information for them and that he died for AIDS, people know also "We are the champions", "We will rock you" and... that's all...it's really sad...
